Coping With Grief And Loss: A Guide To Healing

“A person never gets over their grief,” says Dr. Raymond Moody, father of the near-death experience and grief counselor to thousands in his 45+ years of service to the bereaved. A hole is created in the griever that always stays the same. The part of the person around the “hole of grief” just expands. Coping with grief is the only therapy that works. Dr. Moody offers his knowledge and advice on grief in the film, When Loved Ones Die, available on our digital media page.

If in your grief you are unable to read or for those who prefer media solutions several DVDs and On Demand media is available. Among them is Dr. Moody’s talk “When Loved Ones Die” available on the Course page of this website.

Grieving sometimes leads to a sense of heightened awareness. People grieving the loss of a loved one might even perceive signs and messages from their crossed-over loved ones. ADC (After Death Communication, term coined by Bill and Judy Guggenheim in their Hello from Heaven research and book in 1995) is not uncommon. While ADC is a perceived spontaneous phenomenon of communication from a deceased loved one, there are many other forms of communications possible in the practice of mindfulness and other meditative processes.
